 ;D -

The Race is opened up again  :) .... can hardly wait for tomorrow ! and what lovely scenery and history!  From where they started goes back to BC became a Roman settlement and the architecture is Medieval ......... if only I was brave enough to travel  :sigh: but this way is cheaper and I don't need a Passport !

It's a real shame you can't travel that far, I really don't want to go away when the holiday gets close but once I'm there I enjoy it  ::) It's not an area of France we have visited but Carcassonne is on our list of places to go and that wasn't too far away today. I have friends who went on a canal holiday in today's region and I think Rick Stein might have gone through when he did the canal/cookery show a few years ago.

The brief glance of a bum running up the road broke the monotony ..........  ;)

What a day  :o

It's a close season Vettel is just 1 point ahead of Lewis, but the racing has been dull this year generally  :(

I haven't spotted Didi the devil once this year, I know he had sponsorship in the past so the cameras avoided him so that might be the reason. Unfortunately I have seen quite a few mankinis tho  :o

The Devil has been there a couple of times but whether it's the same guy?  Several white 'chickens' flapping long wings around on a couple of the stages too ..... and the guy in the pink flamingo swimming ring, did U spot him?   ;D

For a few years there has been a family whose daughters dance like Cheer Leaders or cycle on top of their VW Camper van - seen them 3 times so far this Tour, they were there a couple of times in the 1st week, 1 last and then had a break, probably travelling across France  ::)
